Champion D (4,1) 1 Watkins & Kain’s Sh Ch Kincsem Break Every Rule JW, when he walked in I just knew he would be the one to beat, so very typical, quality all through, he gave me goosebumps just moving across to his place in the line-up. When I set them off to move together, I just couldn’t stop smiling to myself as he was everything that I wanted in a Vizsla. Why did he remind me of an early Russetmantle dog? I don’t know, but it was like going back to Gay’s time and looking at dogs & pedigrees with her all those years ago. This boy is sound all through with an excellent neck & shoulders, correct topline, tailset & hindquarters, he moves on well boned legs & feet covering the ground with ease with the correct head carriage & no wasted effort, his proportions are spot on with the depth & length of chest I wanted & an excellent loin to connect front & back.

Thrilled to meet him for the first time, thank you for bringing him for me to see.
